Pi affects all aspects of our lives. It is that vital constant affecting all circles of any size – the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. Pi is infinite and non-repeating, in some ways similar to our potlucks. This month’s theme is to honor pi (even though we will not be gathering on the official pi day).

If you’re not into cooking but just want to socialize, it’s fine to bring something yummy from the store, hopefully in pi-form.

People are also asked to bring their recipe or a list of all ingredients used (for the benefit of those with food allergies).
Please do not bring soup – we have no bowls and are concerned about spills.
Please bring your own beverages.
Please bring your own plates, cups, silverware, and serving utensils. We have spares available if you forget!
We want to keep the event as waste-free as possible — so be prepared to take your leftovers home! But, usually, there aren’t any leftovers!
Non-veg friends and family welcome! Children welcome! Sorry, no dogs. No alcohol.

The Chico Vegan Potluck meets on the fourth Saturday of every month. Delicious food and recipes are shared with those who care about their health, the planet, and, most of all, the animals. You can see the full potluck calendar here.

For more information or cruelty-free recipes, please check the other tabs on this site or join Chico Vegan Meetup on Facebook.

Here are the 2017 Chico Vegan potluck dates–generally the 4th Saturday of the month.
Potlucks are held at the Chico Library Community Room at 1108 Sherman Avenue in Chico and will start promptly at 6 pm and run through 8 pm, except where noted. Bookmark this page for updates as to the monthly theme.

The motto of Chico Vegan Potluck is simple: You don’t have to be vegan, but the food does!

The average potluck attendance is at least 25 people – newbie vegans, long-time vegans, young, old, and in-between, as well as singles and not-singles. The potlucks are promoted through Chico Vegan Meetup and the Chico Vegan Facebook group, as well as from this site. Join those groups for more information on the vegan-friendly goings-on in the Chico area.

This year’s event will be held at the Chico Boys and Girls Club Teen Center at 601 Wall Street in downtown Chico. There is a charge to cover the rental of Teen Center because we’ve outgrown our usual location for this popular event.

Please buy your ticket early; space is limited. After you sign up, you will be directed to a separate potluck coordination page.

Before I get to this month’s theme, I wanted to let people know that these potlucks are way more popular than the RSVP counts on this meetup page. Our average potluck attendance is about 25 people, because we get many people from the Chico Vegan Meetup Facebook group, as well as from chicovegan.com.

The suggested theme of this month’s potluck is: TAPAS TIME, VEGAN-STYLE!

WHAT THE HECK ARE TAPAS????? Tapas are essentially finger foods, usually served (and expected) as snacks at bars, and they can range from rather fancy compilations of fine ingredients to a toothpick of olives, à la extra olives in a martini. Go here if you want to learn more.

The suggested theme of this month’s potluck is: FARMER’S MARKET FUN! Take a walk through one of our many Farmer’s Markets (or your own garden) or the ‘local’ section of your nearest market. No one’s going to be checking to see where you got your produce from! Then, think of a yummy vegan appetizer/snack, salad, entree or dessert that you fancy, make it, and share it!

If you’re not into cooking but just want to socialize, it’s fine to bring something yummy from the store.

People are also asked to bring their recipe or a list of all ingredients used (for the benefit of those with food allergies).

Please do not bring soup – we have no bowls and are concerned about spills.

Please bring your own beverages.

Please bring your own plates, cups, silverware, and serving utensils. We have spares available if you forget!

The Chico Vegan Potluck meets on the fourth Saturday of every month at 6:00 pm. Delicious food and recipes are shared with those who care about their health, the planet, and, most of all, the animals.

Do you have a favorite vegan 4th of July dish that you didn’t get to make yet or really want to share? What about something inspired by an exciting and fresh farmer’s market find? Let’s get together for a lovely vegan potluck in the heat of summer! See you there!

Bring a 100% plant-based dish free of flesh, eggs, animal-derived dairy, honey, and gelatin. If you don’t cook, that’s okay — bring something from the store! Your dish should serve 6 people. Just a heads up: soup is not a good item to bring since we do not have any bowls.

The suggested theme of this month’s potluck is: Kid-Friendly Meals. Bring an appetizer/snack, salad, entree or dessert that kids could make by themselves or with a little help from a grown-up. This theme was inspired by the new vegan cookbook by Ruby Roth titled The Help Yourself Cookbook for Kids. It’s perfectly delightful!

People are also asked to bring their recipe or a list of all ingredients used (for the benefit of those with food allergies).

Please bring your own beverages.

Please bring your own plates, cups, silverware, and serving utensils. We have spares available if you forget.

Also, because we have no bowls, soup is not a good item to bring.
